PART I

Item 1.  Business.

Overview

    Gehl Company (the "Company" or "Gehl") designs, manufactures, sells and
finances equipment used in the light construction equipment and the
agriculture equipment industries.  Construction equipment is comprised of skid
steer loaders, telescopic handlers, asphalt pavers, mini-excavators, and mini-
loaders and is sold to contractors, sub-contractors, owner operators, rental
stores and municipalities.  Agriculture equipment is sold to customers in the
dairy and livestock industries, and includes a broad range of products
including haymaking, forage harvesting, materials handling (skid steer loaders
and attachments), manure handling and feedmaking equipment.  The Company
believes that it is one of the largest non-tractor agriculture equipment
manufacturers in North America.

    On October 2, 1997, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of Brunel America, Inc. and Subsidiaries, including
Mustang Manufacturing Company, Inc. ("Mustang") from Brunel Holdings, plc.
Mustang designs, manufactures and sells skid steer loaders and related
attachments.  Gehl acquired the Brunel America, Inc. stock for $26.7 million;
and entered into a five year non-competition agreement with the seller
pursuant to which Gehl paid $1.0 million.  The Company borrowed $27.7 million
under its existing credit facility to fund the acquisition.  The acquisition
has been accounted for as a purchase transaction and the results of the
Mustang operation have been included in the Company's operating results since
the date of the acquisition.

    Construction equipment is manufactured in Minnesota, Pennsylvania and in
two South Dakota facilities and Agriculture equipment is manufactured in
plants in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and South Dakota.  The Company was founded
in 1859 and was incorporated in the State of Wisconsin in 1890.

Consolidated Financial Statements", included on Page 27 of the Gehl Company
1999 Annual Report to Shareholders, which pages are incorporated by reference
herein.

Construction Equipment

Products:

        Construction equipment is marketed in the following five product areas:

    1.  Skid Steer Loaders - Six models of Gehl skid steer loaders are offered
        which feature a choice of hand-operated T-bar controls, hand only or
        hand and foot controls; and four models of Mustang skid steer loaders
        are offered which feature a choice of T-bar, hand only and hand/foot
        controls.  The skid steer loader, with its fixed-wheel four-wheel
        drive, is used principally for material handling duties.  The skid
        steer loader may also be used with a variety of attachments, including
        dirt, snow and cement buckets, pallet forks and hydraulically-operated
        devices such as cold planers, backhoes, brooms, trenchers,
        snowblowers, industrial grapples, tree diggers, concrete breakers,
        augers and many more.

    2.  Telescopic Handlers - Gehl markets nine models of Dynalift telescopic
        handlers and one model of the Dyna-Handler, rough-terrain telescopic
        forklifts, all with digging capabilities.  These handlers are designed
        to handle heavy loads (up to 12,000 pounds) reaching horizontally and
        vertically (up to 55 ft.) for use by a variety of customers, including
        masons, roofers, building contractors and farmers.

    3.  Asphalt Pavers - Four models of Power Box pavers are marketed by
        Gehl.  These pavers allow variable paving widths from 4 1/2 to 13 feet
        and are used for both commercial and municipal jobs such as county and
        municipal road, sidewalk, golf cart path, jogging trail, parking lot,
        driveway, trailer court and tennis court preparation.

    4.  Mini-excavators - Twelve models of mini-excavators are marketed under
        both Gehl and Mustang brand names.  The units range in size from 1.5
        metric ton to 8 metric ton.  All units come standard with auxiliary
        hydraulics.  An industry exclusive leveling system is offered on a
        number of models.  These units can be equipped with a wide variety of
        attachments.

    5.  Mini-loaders - Gehl markets two models, one rigid frame and one
        articulated unit, of mini-loaders.  The units are powered by a 20 h.p.
        engine and are the only mini-loaders offered in the industry where the
        operator is seated on the unit.  Gehl believes that it offers the only
        mini-loader in the industry with articulated frame and telescopic boom
        features which enable the operator to complete a task without
        disturbing the underlying grass or soil.

Marketing and Distribution:

      The Company maintains a separate distribution system for Construction
equipment.  The Company markets its Construction equipment in North America
through 298 independent dealers (with 708 outlets) and worldwide through 80
distributors.  The Company has no Company-owned dealers and its dealers may
sell equipment produced by other construction equipment manufacturers.  The
top ten dealers and distributors of Construction equipment accounted for
approximately 18% of the Company's sales for the year ended December 31, 1999;
however, no single dealer or distributor accounted for more than 4% of the
Company's sales for that period.  Sales of the Construction equipment skid
steer loader product line accounted for more than 25% of the Company's net
sales in 1997, 1998 and 1999. Sales of the Construction equipment telescopic
handler product line accounted for more than 21% of the Company's net sales in
1997, 1998 and 1999.

      The Company believes that maintenance and expansion of its dealer network
is important to its success in the light construction equipment market.  The
Company also believes that it needs to continue to further develop sales
relationships with key large rental companies to meet the demands of the
changing marketplace.  Various forms of support are provided for its
Construction equipment dealers, including sales and service training, and, in
the United States and Canada, floor plan financing for its dealers and retail
financing for both its dealers and their customers.  The light construction
equipment dealers in North America are also supported by district sales
managers who provide a variety of services, including training, equipment
demonstrations and sales, warranty and service assistance, and regional field
service representatives to assist in training and routine dealer service
support functions.

Industry and Competition:

       Gehl's Construction equipment product lines face competition in each of
their markets.  In general, each line competes with a small group of from
seven to twelve different companies. The Company competes within the light
construction equipment markets based primarily on price, quality, service and
distribution.

      The primary markets for Gehl's Construction equipment outside of North
America are in Europe, Australia, Latin America, the Middle East and the
Pacific Rim.  The Company believes it is a significant competitor in the skid
steer loader market in most of these markets.

Agriculture Equipment

Products:

      Agriculture equipment is marketed in five product areas.

      1. Haymaking - Gehl's haymaking line includes a broad range of products
         used to harvest and process hay crops for livestock feed.  The
         Company offers disc mowers, a wide range of pull-type disc mower
         conditioners, hay rakes and variable-chamber round balers.

      2. Forage Harvesting - The Company believes that it currently
         manufactures and sells one of the industry's most complete lines of
         forage harvesting equipment, including forage harvesters, wagons and
         blowers.

      3. Material Handling - This line consists of six different models of
         Gehl skid steer loaders and the Dyna-Handler forklift.  The skid
         steer loader is a compact, fixed-wheel four-wheel drive unit
         typically equipped with a bucket or fork and is used for moving a
         variety of material.  The Dyna-Handler is a rough-terrain telescopic
         forklift with digging capabilities.  The skid steer loader and Dyna-
         Handler forklift are marketed by dealers who handle Agriculture
         equipment and by dealers who handle Construction equipment.

      4. Manure Handling - Gehl offers a broad range of manure spreaders,
         including the Scavenger "V-Tank" side-discharge manure spreader
         which incorporates a hydraulically controlled auger allowing the
         spreader to handle a wide range of semi-liquid waste products,
         including municipal sludge.  For handling mostly solid manure, the
         Company also markets four models of rear-discharge box spreaders.

      5. Feedmaking - The Company believes that it offers the broadest line of
         portable feedmaking equipment in the industry. The Company offers the
         Gehl Mix-All line of grinder mixers and a line of mixer feeders and
         a feeder wagon for both mixing feed rations and delivery to livestock
         feeders.

Marketing and Distribution:

      In North America, Gehl's agricultural equipment is sold through
approximately 385 geographically dispersed dealers (with 423 outlets).  Fifty-
four of these dealers are located in Canada.  Agriculture equipment is also
marketed through 21 distributors in Europe, the Middle East, the Pacific Rim
and Latin America.  The Company has no Company-owned dealers and its dealers
may sell equipment produced by other agricultural equipment manufacturers.

      It has been and remains the Company's objective to increase the share of
Gehl products sold by a Gehl dealer. Gehl is not dependent for its sales on
any specific Agriculture dealer or group of dealers.  The top ten dealers and
distributors in Agriculture equipment accounted for approximately 5% of the
Company's sales for the year ended December 31, 1999 and no one dealer or
distributor accounted for over .7% of the Company's sales during that period.
Sales of the Agriculture equipment skid steer loader product line accounted
for more than 13% of the Company's net sales in 1997, 1998 and 1999.

      The Company provides various forms of support for its dealer network,
including sales and service training.  The Company also provides floor plan
and retail finance support for products sold by its dealers in the United
States and Canada.

      The Company employs district sales managers to assist its agricultural
dealers in the promotion and sale of its product and regional service managers
to assist in warranty and servicing matters.  The Company currently operates
three service parts distribution centers located in: Memphis, Tennessee;
Syracuse, New York; and Minneapolis, Minnesota.  The Company also contracts
with two service parts distribution locations in Rockwood, Ontario and
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.

Industry and Competition:

      The agriculture equipment industry has seen significant consolidation and
retrenchment since 1980.  This has served to reduce the total number of
competitors, to strengthen certain major competitors, and to reduce the
strength of certain other companies in the industry.  The Company competes
within the agriculture equipment industry based primarily on products sold,
price, quality, service and distribution.

      The agriculture equipment markets in North America are highly competitive
and require substantial capital outlays.  The Company has four major
competitors as well as numerous other limited line manufacturers and
importers.  The largest manufacturers in the agriculture equipment industry,
the Company's major competitors, generally produce tractors and combines as
well as a full line of tillage and planting equipment.  Such manufacturers
also market, to varying degrees, haymaking, forage harvesting, materials
handling, manure handling and/or feedmaking equipment, the areas in which the
Company's agriculture products are concentrated.  No single competitor
competes with the Company in each of its product lines.  The Company believes
that it is the only non-tractor manufacturer in the industry that produces
equipment in each of these product lines.  Smaller manufacturers which compete
with the Company produce only a limited line of specialty items and often
compete only in regional markets.

      Gehl's agriculture equipment is primarily distributed to customers in the
dairy and livestock industries.  Compared to a more volatile period in the
late 1980's and early 1990's, milk prices, cash income, land values, and the
general economy were more favorable and stable for the dairy farmer in the mid
through late 1990's.  These more favorable conditions and lower debt to equity
ratios as compared with those generally experienced in most of the 1980's led
to increased buying by farmers of agriculture equipment in 1993 and 1994.
However, declines in the total number of farms prevented total industry demand
to reach its 1989-1993 volume peaks in most product areas.  In 1995-1999,
industry market demand varied, with demand for the Company's products
generally lower than its peak years.

      Approximately 90% of the Company's agriculture dealers also carry the
tractor and combine product lines of a major manufacturer.  In addition to
selling the tractors and combines of a major manufacturer, many of these
dealers carry the major manufacturer's entire line of products, some of which
directly compete with Gehl's products offered.  Dealers of Gehl's Agriculture
equipment also market equipment manufactured by limited line manufacturers
which compete with specific product lines offered by the Company.

      The primary markets for Gehl's Agriculture equipment outside of North
America are in Europe and the Pacific Rim.  In these markets, the Company
competes with both agriculture equipment manufacturers from the United States,
some of which have manufacturing facilities in foreign countries, and foreign
manufacturers.  The Company does not believe, however, that it is presently a
significant competitor in any of these foreign markets.

Backlog

      The backlog of unfilled equipment orders (which orders are subject to
cancellation in certain circumstances) as of December 31, 1999 was $20.0
million versus $28.0 million at December 31, 1998.  Virtually all orders in
the backlog at December 31, 1999 are expected to be shipped in 2000.  The
decreased backlog at December 31, 1999 was due to the reduced levels of
backlog for both Agriculture equipment and Construction equipment. This trend
of decreasing backlog which, in general, has been occurring since 1994, is
believed to be a function of dealer order patterns, pursuant to which dealers
place orders at points in time closer to their expected need and due to the
increased manufacturing capacity of the Company's plants, which has allowed
the Company to supply equipment in a more expedited fashion.

      Given the segments that the Company ships into, there exists some
seasonality in its sales trends, primarily in the Company's second and third
quarter, which historically have tended to be its strongest quarters for
sales, while sales levels have historically tended to be lower in the first
and fourth quarters.

Floor Plan and Retail Financing

Floor Plan Financing:

      The Company, as is typical in the industry, generally provides floor plan
financing for its dealers.  Products shipped to dealers under the Company's
floor plan financing program are recorded by the Company as sales and the
dealers' obligations to the Company are reflected as accounts receivable.

      The Company provides interest-free floor plan financing to its dealers,
for Construction equipment for varying periods of time generally up to six
months and for Agriculture equipment generally for up to one year.  Dealers
who sell products utilizing floor plan financing are required to make
immediate payment for those products to the Company upon sale or delivery to
the retail customer.  At the end of the interest-free period, if the equipment
remains unsold to retail customers, the Company generally charges interest to
the dealer at 3.25% above the prime rate or on occasion provides an interest-
free extension of up to six months upon payment by the dealer of a curtailment
of 25% of the original invoice price to the dealer.  This type of floor plan
equipment financing accounts for approximately 90% of Gehl's dealer accounts
receivable, with all such floor planned receivables required to be secured by
a first priority security interest in the equipment sold.

Retail Financing:

      The Company also provides retail financing primarily to facilitate the
sale of equipment to end users.  Additionally, a number of dealers purchase
equipment which is held for rental to the public.  The Company also provides
retail financing to such dealers in connection with these purchases.  Retail
financing in the United States is provided by the Company primarily through
Gehl Finance, the Company's finance division.  Retail financing is provided
in Canada by third parties at rates subsidized by the Company.  The Company
does not offer or sponsor retail financing outside of North America.

      The Company maintains arrangements with third parties pursuant to which
the Company sells, with recourse, certain of the Company's retail finance
contracts.  The finance contracts require periodic installments of principal
and interest over periods of up to 60 months; interest rates are based on
market conditions.  The majority of these contracts have maturities of 12 to
48 months.  The Company continues to service the finance contracts it sells,
including cash collections.  See Note 3 of "Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements," Page 22, and "Management's Discussion and Analysis," Pages 16 and
17 of the Gehl Company 1999 Annual Report to Shareholders, which pages are
incorporated by reference herein.

Employees

      As of December 31, 1999, the Company had 1,118 employees, of which 758
were hourly employees and 360 were salaried employees.  At the production
facilities in West Bend, Wisconsin, one of five Gehl production facilities,
230 hourly employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement with the
United Paperworkers International Union (formerly the Allied Industrial
Workers) which expires January 10, 2003.  None of the remaining employees of
the Company are represented by unions.  There have been no labor-related work
stoppages at the Company's facilities during the past twenty-six years.

Manufacturing

      The Company is currently expanding its South Dakota skid loader
manufacturing facility and believes that its present manufacturing facilities,
as expanded, will be sufficient to provide adequate capacity for its
operations in 2000.

      Component parts needed in the manufacture of the Company's equipment are
primarily produced by the Company.  The Company obtains raw materials
(principally steel), component parts that it does not manufacture, most
notably engines and hydraulics, and supplies from third party suppliers.  All
such materials and components used are available from a number of sources.
The Company is not dependent on any supplier that cannot be readily replaced
and has not experienced difficulty in obtaining necessary purchased materials.

      In addition to the equipment it manufactures, the Company markets
equipment acquired from third party suppliers.  Products acquired from these
suppliers accounted for less than 10% of the Company's sales in 1999.

Research and Development

      The Company attempts to maintain and strengthen its market position
through internal new product development and incremental improvements to
existing products.  The Company's research and development is devoted to
developing new products that meet specific customer needs and to devising
incremental improvements to existing products.  Research and development
performed by the Company includes the designing and testing of new and
improved products as well as the fabrication of prototypes.  The Company
expended approximately $3.0 million, $2.8 million and $2.3 million on research
and development for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

Patents and Trademarks

      The Company possesses rights under a number of domestic and foreign
patents and trademarks relating to its products and business.  While the
Company considers the patents and trademarks important in the operation of its
business, including the Gehl name, the Mustang name, the Dynalift name
and the group of patents relating to the Scavenger manure spreader, the
business of the Company is not dependent, in any material respect, on any
single patent or trademark or group of patents or trademarks.
